Renovation work started on the LCU Hargrove Chapel on Wednesday. The auditorium is getting a facelift this summer with new flooring, theater seating instead of long pew benches and fresh paint.

Seeing the project underway brought back memories for LDN's Karen Hargis, who is a graduate of LCU. "I came to Lincoln in 1971 to go to school at LCU (Lincoln Christian College then). That first year there was no chapel, but big plans were in the making for it. I was one of the many students that went to help tear down the corn crib that stood where the chapel is now. I was one of the students that snuck in while the chapel was being built to watch the massive construction and to pray. I remember thinking this was Holy ground back then and even now.

"Thousands have entered that place for chapel service, conferences, plays, concerts, and even funerals. I wonder how many have had the same thought about it seeming like Holy ground, and yet I am reminded that it is not the place that is Holy; it's the Holy One that hears those prayers. Wherever we are, that place becomes His holy ground."
